Please note that in my return I have put characters through multiple changes, such as design, backstory, traits, ect. And even made new ones! Here I will showcase a surprise character through It's eyes only. Please Enjoy
"YOU DID WHAT?" Meses screeched, glaring me down once again. I swear, he over reacts to much. All I did was knock over some scrolls, it isn't murder. but you know what he did? He just kept screeching, "OUT OF ALL THE THINGS YOU'VE DONE THIS IS BOUND TO BE THE STUPIDEST MOVE YET, TURTLE."
I looked at him with a casual frown, "Well sorry for knocking over some stupid scrolls." I replied, Meses face lit up with pure hatred, or maybe he was becoming a tomato?
"You know what? No, I'm not going to get mad." Meses suddenly decided, smart move, I'll give him that. "instead I'll just have Ama take care of you, who knows. Maybe I won't see you again!" he hissed. Shoving me back, I landed with a heavy thud on the floor. I didn't really feel it, gotta love thick skin!
"AMA!" Meses called at the top of his lungs, he winced and covered his eyes. I looked away with tears as shadows rippled and spurred followed with a BAM like somebody decided to shoot a gun. When I looked back Ama stood there.
A wispy form that seemed to be faded in candle light. Even if it was just an after effect of "Shadow Travel" she still looked ghost white, fur correcting itself and her emerald attire drifting back down onto her. Her fur lightened from an ugly black to a murky red with pale brown eyes. Red, bat-like wings, nearly black tucked at her sides.
You could say she looked like any other Cave Balsu if it wasn't for the white war paintings that striped her. But she wasn't here to be sassy, Meses beckoned her from her work and she looked mad. And when she looked at me I was ready to hightail out. But I couldn't.
"It's bothering you again?" Ama spat, distaste strung her tone. "IT" they always refer me to a thing never my name.
"Yes, IT is, Ama. How blind are you?" Meses snarled, the Cave Balsu sighed. Looking at me she came near, if you ever come face to face with a Cave Balsu that didn't know you. My best advice is to act dead, these guys just love to try reviving the dead. Sadly Ama knew me like I knew her, sorta.
"What exactly did It do, Meses?" Ama asked, glancing back at him before staring me down once more.
"The scrolls of Eldur were just knocked to the floor like they meant nothing." he hissed, Ama raised a brow as she listened. "Eldur, that ancient colossus that went dormant after killing his brother? Oh wait, as you put it, banished to the Other Realm." Meses glared, "He was a being of air and earth, not some stupid creature from your mythologies, Balsu." Ama merely chuckled at his reply, lifting a blood stained paw, claws slid out with the ugly slits at the tip of her toes. Before I could even react the iron grip was around my throat and pinning me to a wall! Can you believe that? They didn't even let me have a say of words before strangling me! No decency at all.
"You called me out of distress and annoyance, did you not?" Ama spoke between gritted teeth, Meses huffed. "Indeed I did you Cave Demon, you remember the deal. This is the tenth time I've called you to deal with this impudence!" I simply watched, while struggling to breath, mind you, as the Cave Balsu's eyes narrowed. Lips twisting into a teeth bared frown. I was happily yanked from the stone and me and my new partner jetted, well Ama went backwards while holding me by the throat making her the one carrying me as she darted away, but, blah-blah-shut up.
Anyways, if you are lucky to be dragged along by a Cave Balsu before they do their little shadow travel, it is quite the sight! That is if you aren't terrified of loud noises, get sick by speeding images and sights and foul decaying smell of ten day old rotting corpse then you should be perfectly fine and enjoy this. I couldn't really breath much less smell while being strangled, only left to get nauseous by the sights that came and went in the blink of an eye. I lifted a scaly claw to examine it, it was like I was covered in thick amounts of oil and fresh tar. Bits of darkness spilling off from me. Any shadow that would've been was a sickly white.
Imagine shadow travel like this: It reflects the world, you can see others go past you as they travel from places. It can take you anywhere, as long as there is darkness lingered and you know where it is and looks like. Any shadow you see in the normal world is displayed as white down here while everything else is black and grey. Not the most colorful or inviting. Not to mention you get to see those who died during this as well, it's exhausting to complete this task, for the inexperienced or unfit at least. Ama was like the tank of endurance, not sure why the Cave Monarchy let her slip out from under their gnarled paws.
When it was over, everything just sorta popped out from being gloomy and over saturated. Everything held color again and I was thrown to the mud, yes mud, I didn't know where I was but it was obviously a rain forest like habitat. We where under the shade of a massive tree with a bird practically screaming from the branches of it.
"So how long does this last?" I asked, a bit pitiful. The Nitsu breed stared at me with a sour frown, "You think your coming back?" she snarled, turning. I felt horror swell inside me as I scrambled forth, "NO WAIT-" too late, she had hopped into the shadow of the tree. The dark mimic of the plant rippled before stilling like any normal shadow. I was just abandoned.
I'll have you know being abandoned by an acquaintance of yours and left in the middle of unknown territory is highly rude. For many reasons. I'm the best looker of my breed and I just got left! Anyways you all must be wanting details of the location I was in.
The area was practically flooded with shrubs and massive trees, I would like to say red wood trees but I might be wrong. It might be that other big tree.. Hm, Sa-something.. Bah can't remember the name. Moving on with the details, the land was rather lush with plants and still managed to reek more then cow dung. What if I was standing on plant's notorious fertilizer: dung. That's not a fun thought.
Either way i had to get moving, so putting aside my fear and disgust I trudged onward. I glanced now and then in a vain attempted to tell what time it was but the canopy of leaves and branches hid the sky from me. I should also tell you I have been wondering around in that forest for three hours until finally stumbling out of the seemingly endless forest and into vast plains. Then I saw birch wood huts and a breath-taking massive statue in the far distance.
You'd think knowing the Balsu subspecies of the Nitsu I would be aware of the new danger I've hobbled towards. But honestly I could've cared less when I jogged over to the horrifying large town. A few birch trees spotted here and. Which made me wonder how this town had some many places built out of birch wood.
I was getting closer and closer until a I got side smacked by a bright figure. I spiraled sideways before toppling over on to my back. The hard armor plating along my sides and back ached especially my side. When I turned my head to investigate bone plating had be peeled clean off of my body leaving bleeding gashes from the torn up flesh that held the plating.
I bit my lip and forced myself to stand "Argghh... get up before they come back." I whined through bared, rounded teeth. My fangs felt like they were about to fall out. I glanced around in an attempt to see who the assaulter was. Though when i looked right I saw a crumpled figure on the ground, feathered wings folded into a heap. I got ran over by a Plain Balsu.
Despite the utter disrespect and injury I had received from the light colored Balsu I still neared. Their small frame bloating up slightly as they breathed. Their colors were a pale yellow mixed with some cherry red stripes on the tail and wings against a white base. Rather pretty appearance if you asked me.
"Are you alright?" I questioned with a mildly worried tone. Stalking over to the crumpled Plain Balsu. With a scaly claw I gripped their loose skinned nape and pulled them upwards, when their head faced me I saw a vengeful frown on their face. Oh boy.
"Alright? ALRIGHT? You ask me if I'm alright while holding my by the back of my neck? You stupid idiot!" a very enraged, petite famine voice was the Balsu's vocals as they gave me rather unsavory insults.
"I believe you were the one that rocketed into my side and torn bone plating from my body clean off," I replied with a cold snarl. With a free claw I pointed to the mangled left side. "besides it's all your own fault for not paying attention were your going and being so close to ground."
"I believe your the idiot for even wondering the upper domains, don't you belong in the undergrounds with the Cave Scum?" she spat, squirming in my grip. Out of disgust from her rudeness I promptly dropped her from my stand point. I'm six feet tall with an extra six inches mind you.
The Balsu landed on her butt with a small, faint thud. She scowled and quickly stood up no doubt with a sore rear and possible concussion or headache. Who knew maybe the Plain Balsu were more thick skull then Cave Balsu. That's new.
"I don't live underground you imbecile I live in tropical terrains!" I snapped at her yet the Plain Balsu merely gave a sickly grin before leaping at my. I reared back but with quick beats of her wings she out maneuvered me and was on my back, claws digging into revealed flesh and torn up skin. I gave a low growl before swinging my head around in a furious roar. My vocals dropped to a bass boom before lightening to a alto with a bit of tenor backup in the war cry.
The Plain Balsu ducked and scampered to my other side. Avoiding a getting impelled by four sharp fangs and being crushed by the rest of my teeth. The best way to get a Plain Balsu off you is roll and don't stop. thrash and buck around and give them the bull ride of a life time. Sadly I wasn't the nimble I was actually very bulky and had a mild case of bad slow slowness. So instead and hopped around in circles the Plain Balsu hanging onto my plates as I bounced around before growling and scrambling over to my wounded side.
"SIT!" she shouted slamming her claws onto the open wounds and biting peeled up skin, pulling back. A screech escaped me, a sound I would never had imagined making. It was the highest noise I've ever made. A squeak. With a low growl I motioned to sit down before falling sideways to me right. The Plain Balsu released a scream barely hopping off of me in time to avoid being crushed alive.
I stood up as quick as I could had turned around with a vicious growl barreling forth and lunging. The Plain Balsu got out of the way and instead of hitting the ground I fell right through it. A vortex of color surrounded me at first until I crash landed onto the ground once again. My head ached after that.
And here is were my story ends. When I went splat into one of the realms of Yugure. Yes, I wonder around for a bit saw some.. unforgettable things but I'm overall fine! You think I'm going to tell you my name yet? Haha. No. Were is the fun of that when you can try to find me and meet me instead? A lovely Dranke decided to right it all down for me since I don't know how to write. Plus she has better handwriting anyways.
"YOU DID WHAT?" Meses screeched, glaring me down once again. I swear, he over reacts to much. All I did was knock over some scrolls, it isn't murder. but you know what he did? He just kept screeching, "OUT OF ALL THE THINGS YOU'VE DONE THIS IS BOUND TO BE THE STUPIDEST MOVE YET, TURTLE."

Maybe I won't see you again!" he hissed. Shoving me back, I landed with a heavy thud on the floor. I didn't really feel it, gotta love thick skin!
"AMA!" Meses called at the top of his lungs, he winced and covered his eyes. I looked away with tears as shadows rippled and spurred followed with a BAM like somebody decided to shoot a gun. When I looked back Ama stood there.
